Hello Technosailor readers the name is Sean (”aka” Seaniemo, “aka” The Angry Black Man). I have been asked to do a guest post here. It is an extreme honor to be asked to do this. Hope this enlightens you.
From the mind of “The Angry Black Man”.
I had the opportunity to partake in a conversation last night with a friend about the so-called “PLAYAism” game of today. That conversation took me right back to a previous post on my blog From these brown eyes dealing with my views on the state of our African American communities. But as always I have got to drop it before I go forward so “peep this if you will”.
In giving some thought to my BLOG site I first had to figure out exactly why I wanted it and what purpose it would serve. After giving it some thought I have learned that my biggest desire is to reach my race and be a contributor to the rebuilding of our African-American village for many reasons. The biggest one is to share with my community some of the things that one black person often thinks about and goes through so they can see that they are not in it by themselves. Next to help myself continue on the path of growth and develop my writing skills because I have always wanted to write a book and even a play. Also for all of my (our) children.
It would be a great day if through this site my heart would be exposed to them. Just to let them know that someone really does care. Anyway back to the lecture at hand.
PLAYAism 101
First I would like to thank you for attending today’s session. I hope you have your pen/pencils and note pads. In this class we are going to take a look at the cause & effect of PLAYAism. But before we go there let’s get the definition of a PLAYA.
WEBSTER’S Definition:
player (wrong spelling)
1. One that plays, especially:
a. One who participates in a game or sport.
b. A gambler.
c. One who performs in theatrical roles.
d. One who plays a musical instrument.
2. An active participant: a major player in world affairs.
3. The mechanism actuating a player piano.
4. A machine that reproduces recorded audio or audiovisual material.
playa (right spelling)
n.
A nearly level area at the bottom of an undrained desert basin, sometimes temporarily covered with water.
NOW THE STREET (Or Slang) Dictionary’s definition:
Player (wrong spelling)
n 1. Someone who dates more than one person at a time, usually just for sex or other perks. Will typically do anything to have sex with someone. Carries a heavy negative connotation. Usually used to describe males, but could be used to describe females who act in this manner. Often pronounced “playa.” (”He is such a player!”) sexuality (related to) skilled.
Now if I had to use my collegiate intellect (not that I have attended college before), or professional face (whatever that is) I would say Webster’s definition is correct.
On the other hand if I had to use my street intellect I would first say it is spelled wrong (must be an amateur) but the definition is right. But my question is this about that definition (still using the street intellect) is simple. Is it really referring to a PLAYA or a HO? Sounds like a HO to me.
Now coming where I come from that definition was true but as I got older (THANK GOD I GOT OLDER) I learned something that the other Pimps (because I have hung with a few) and Playa’s did not tell me for whatever reason.
The real scam (because it really is) about the game of PLAYAism is the PLAYA is really not PLAYING, he/she is really being PLAYED.
I have had to share this particular bit of information with a few guys and the sad part of it was they were completely under the influence of their own hype and because of that the feeling of DENIAL manifested. One in particular seemed to be so upset with me he got this look in his face like he wanted to punch me cold out. I was only giving him some real information.
Now as we go further into this subject please do not forget I am going to be speaking mainly from the male perspective. Now for that bit of information that is given in PLAYA training class. And you know I may get heat for this.
*SIDE QUESTION:*
Do they have a PLAYA’S training course for real? LMAO
In roughly 90% of all scenarios it has been predetermined by the prey if the predator will succeed. That sounds like something off of The Discovery Channel. SPECIAL INTERPRETATION-90% of the time your PLAYA skills aren’t really being used because the woman you got your eyes on has already determined whether you are going to hit the skins, get the money, get the keys to the car, get the clothes & jewelry and all the other perks.
Sound like you don’t believe me. Okay then why does it take so long to hit it then? I don’t care what you think, here is a real fact. When it comes to giving it up women tend to make men wait longer then men do to women. How many times has a guy said these things just to get it?
3. If you love me…
2. I will burst if you don’t…
And the #1 line (that’s right line) I LOVE YOU.
I have done all of that failing to realize it had already been predetermined by the female when, where and how I was going to get it.
I know this 40 year old guy who swears to everything moving that he is the ultimate playa. Personally I think he is suffering from a mid-life crisis and low self-esteem. More than 90% of his conversation is based upon women and how to get it but the funny part is when he describes his encounters with woman it sounds like her clothes are the only thing that is close to her.
And then he brags on it like all men are supposed to bow down to him. Hence a victim of his own hype. *Side Note* He’s white and acts like this will get him a free pass into the world of being black. NOT!!!
Believe it or not this has been something that has caused problems within the African American communities for a long time. Referring back to my previous entry

I don’t know about a mall. :p We’re across from the “Package Stroe”. BLB Inn & Suites… godness gracious.
We got holed up here because there isn’t any vacancies with a block of rooms for 90 miles around Pascagoula.
